10 Swiss Francs Half Vreneli - Gold - 1911-1922

10 Swiss Francs Half Vreneli Gold (1911–1922)

The 10 Swiss Francs Half Vreneli Gold Coin offers a rare and compact alternative to the popular 20 Franc Vreneli. Struck only between 1911 and 1922 — and in just seven of those years — this smaller denomination is far less common, making it an attractive choice for both collectors and investors seeking European historic gold.

The obverse features the classic Vreneli portrait, with “HELVETIA” inscribed above and the Swiss mountains in the background. On the reverse, the Swiss cross rests on a radiant sunburst above a bouquet of alpine flowers, with the face value “10 FR” and date below. Each coin carries the “B” mintmark for Bern.

Due to its limited mintage, smaller size, and age, this coin is scarcer than its 20 Franc counterpart and often found in more varied conditions — adding to its collectability. It remains a recognized and tradable piece of Switzerland’s rich numismatic history.
